This study presents the design, simulation, and hardware implementation of a hybrid PI–Fuzzy Logic controller for a single-phase synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM) drive system. The objective is to enhance speed and torque control performance using cost-effective embedded hardware. A field-oriented control (FOC) scheme was modeled in MATLAB/Simulink and implemented on an ATmega328P microcontroller interfaced with an infrared speed encoder. Among the three tested controllers—PI, Fuzzy Logic, and Hybrid PI–Fuzzy—the hybrid controller exhibited superior performance, achieving minimal overshoot, reduced settling time, and improved robustness to disturbances. Experimental results confirmed accurate and stable speed tracking under dynamic conditions, making the proposed system highly suitable for industrial and domestic applications.
